The Midnight Heir DUST
She saw the symbols Anthony had been talking about and she knew instantly that it was the exact box. The fact that it was floating made it more obvious."Woah, so that's what you were on about? What type of box is it?" Tessa asked as Anthony limped forward and grabbed the box.The moment he touched it, the box stopped floating and fell into his hands to be taken out.Anthony carried the box out of the hole he had created in the wall then he limped to the middle of the room while Tessa followed behind, wanting to see more of it."Silver, how on earth did you get something like this? It looks like one of those items you would find in voodoo shops" Tessa said as Anthony turned all sides of the box to inspect it."Someone gave it to me," Anthony said and Tessa creased her forehead."Someone? Someone like who, a witch?" She asked jokingly then looked at Anthony's face but he looked serious."Wait Silver, did a witch seriously give this to you?"Anthony shrugged "I don't know but it might a
The Midnight Heir AT WHAT COST?
A couple of hours later, Anthony took in a deep but calm breath then opened his eyes slowly as he sighed peacefully.The first thing he noticed is that he was facing the ceiling and the second is realizing that all the pain he had been feeling before had upped and vanished.At the same time, he wasn’t surprised by the fact, he somewhat expected it but he had no idea why it was. Where did the strong feeling that he would be relieved from all pain come from? He wondered.He brought his left hand to his field of vision which was the ceiling to stare at it.He stared at his palm and then at the back of his hand, alternating multiple times while wiggling his fingers around and cracking the bones in his fingers until finally, he clenched his fist as tight as possible.He was measuring what his current strength was and it was back to normal. At the same time, he felt like this normal strength that he had had his entire life is his weakest and he could get stronger.The reason he felt like th
The Midnight Heir SPARE KEY
Not long after they finished having their conversation, Anthony went to take a shower and clean up the dirt and dried blood on his body while Tessa waited for him by the window.She would have sat down but only the messy bed which had Anthony’s dried blood smeared on it was available and she didn’t want to sit there When Anthony was done he came out looking and smelling fresh, wearing the pair of clothes he took inside the bathroom when he returned from Gem fest with the box and he joined her to continue looking out the window.“I just realized this but what brought you here in the first place?” Anthony asked Tessa.Tessa jolted with widened eyes then answered “Oh, that’s right. I came here originally to give you this. Unfortunately, something else took precedence but I'm glad that’s over with. Anyway, here” she said, reaching into her back trouser pocket and bringing out the half access card Anthony had given her.She extended it to Anthony and he looked at it in her hand.She said
The Midnight Heir REBRANDING AND REDESIGN
Anthony was about to walk into the restaurant when something by the side caught his eye.It was a little sign which says [WELCOME TO THE BRAND REOPENING OF THE GRAND BLUE RESTAURANT] and a time of opening for when the night shift usually starts.“They rebranded?” Anthony asked himself and then finally walked into the restaurant.The first thing he noticed is that the interior had been renovated again and unlike the last renovation which was mostly a theme change and a little reconstruction, this time it was a complete makeover from how it used to be.If Anthony didn’t know better, he would have thought that it was an entirely different restaurant he just walked in.From what he saw he was impressed with the job done and he knew that whoever choose the plans for this design had really good taste.At the same time, he knew who that person was, the new manager of the restaurant of course, and Michael already had great style back when he was just a regular staff and was doing more with hi
The Midnight Heir RETIRED
At first, Michael was surprised to see that it was Anthony that wanted to see him but after they exchanged pleasantries and a firm handshake the mood became serious again.“So, the time has finally come. I had a feeling you will be coming to my office for this so I already drafted everything and all that’s left is a signature” Michel said as he brought out Anthony’s resignation paper from his desk drawer.He gave the piece of paper to Anthony who took it and grimaced with surprise that the man plans this much ahead.Casey smirked at Anthony and said “What can you say about that? Is he the best freaking manager or what?” Michael looked at Casey, annoyed, and said “How many times have I told you to watch your language when at work, especially when in my office”Casey scratched the back of her head, chuckling nervously as she said “Sorry about that, it just slipped out. I promise, it won’t happen again”“Foul words always slip out with you and how many times have you made that same prom
The Midnight Heir MAN IN AN EXPENSIVE SUIT
The distance between the kitchen and the entrance was somewhat far and due to the redesign, it’s hard to see through the counter that separates the main dining area and the kitchen. As such, they couldn’t see Anthony without being hinted to look directly at him and that’s how he’s staying out of their sight.Anthony’s hearing had improved slightly ever since he woke up and the chocolate complexion man was loud when he talked which allowed Anthony to hear when they called his name.Knowing that this involves him somehow, Anthony activated his glowing eyes and checked the energy around the men, seeing that they had guns and were ready to use them if necessary and then he turned off the ability.Anthony grunted as he crossed his arms “I don’t know them from anywhere so what could they want with me?” He mumbledMichael and Casey looked at each other in confusion.Michael looked back at the man, chuckling nervously “I’m sorry sir but I think you’re in the wrong place. There’s no employee
The Midnight Heir SIT DOWN
Michael looked at Anthony with a confused expression."Favorite, you know these people?!" Michael asked, making the same shocked face that matched the same one Casey had."Favorite, how do you know these dangerous people?" Casey asked but was ignored by the one she wanted answers from, Anthony who was too dumbfounded to listen to any questions right now.The Overseer whose name was actually Victor looked at Anthony for a little while. He was smirking at how dispirited the silver haired man was at the moment and then he looked at Casey."A little favor from a customer, Miss. Call him by his real name, Anthony Star, from now on, okay? No more of that made-up rubbish that I'm sure he had The Busboys help him create, isn't that right, Tony?" The overseer said while Casey repeated Anthony's name to herself.She just like Michael was trying to figure out why he would lie and hide his true identity from everyone. Not just that, they also wondered how he was able to accomplish a feat like that
The Midnight Heir POKER FACE
Anthony looked above The Overseer's head like he wanted, focusing on the tip of the Overseer's pointing finger then sighed because he knew he wouldn't be able to read his thoughts.He didn't even attempt to do it because he had tried before with Benjamin Oswald and he remembered vividly what the outcome of that little experiment was and so there was no point in going through that torture again.Anthony lowered his gaze back to the Overseer's eyes and the man in front of him grimaced."That was fast! Let me guess, you didn't read it, did you?" An annoyed Overseer said then laughed "What? You think I'm not worth using your power on or what is this?!""Victor, listen—" Anthony said but was cut off."I said, look over my head and read what I'm thinking!" The Overseer commanded and Anthony huffed then looked above his head once more.Using his very strong poker face, Anthony acted like his power to read minds was still intact as he continued staring above The Overseer's head for seconds lo

ADOPTIVE SON ARC FINALE
Abraham rose from his chair and looked at Johnathan with shock."Master Johnathan, what do you mean by that?! Are you seriously giving up on all of this and want to return home?!" Abraham asked enthusiastically.Johnathan was left speechless as he looked at Abraham and was grimacing in confusion.He never knew Abraham would react this way to what he said and it was like he was happy to hear him give up on the mission.Abraham grinned "Even though we've already done this much, it's not too late to stop all of this and return home Master Johnathan," he said then dropped on his chair.He immediately opened his desk drawer and searched for some documents which he started arranging, hoping to start packing what they needed so that they could leave this place first thing in the morning.Johnathan cleared his throat when he had seen enough."What is it, Master Johnathan? Do you have a cough? Sore throat maybe? Don't worry, I'll be right there to check what's wrong but first lemme put these d

Johnathan looked at George and then at Abraham when he got close and he realized that he had forgotten a piece of vital information."Master Jo—" Abraham said but Johnathan quickly interrupted him."Not exactly. I forgot to tell you but this is Abraham, the person I called on the phone back at the bowling rink and he's the one sponsoring me so that I can attend Wellstone. I also call him my guardian like I told you" George looked at Johnathan skeptically then he looked at the luxurious apartment."So you're saying that none of this belongs to you but him?" George asked."Yes"George nodded his head and then started smiling."I thought so. No way a cool and nice guy like you comes from wealth. You almost gave me a heart attack there, not cool" George said.Abraham and the maids looked at George and they were all frowning that he could be talking to their master like this. He should show some respect.Seeing that they were going to lash out at George, Johnathan gave them a signal while

Johnathan stared at this student, wondering if he wanted to get involved with him or not. He's already helped him wake up so should he involve himself beyond this point?In the end, he came up with his answer."I'm nobody," Johnathan said then stood up and stuffed his hands into his hoodie pocket."As you can see the party is over so you should start going him. That's why I'm doing" Johnathan said.The student looked around and he was disappointed that he missed the party. A reaction that Johnathan found strange because he was more concerned about that than the fact Bradly had knocked him unconscious."Whoever you are, thanks for waking me up. I should also start heading—" The student said as he was standing up but then his stomach started hurting and he crashed back down.The student grabbed his stomach and started wincing from the pain."What's wrong?" Johnathan asked him, worried that something else might be wrong."I don't know, my stomach just hurts like hell. Was it something I d

"Hey Bradly, how come it seems like you know the Welfie on a personal level when none of us have ever seen him before?" One of the two students who came with Bradly asked.Immediately, a grin popped up on Bradly's face."What do you think worm, should I tell them?" Bradly whispered in Johnathan's ear and Johnathan jolted.Johnathan knew instantly what Bradly's plan was and what he was going to say to everyone and his heart started pounding fast."Listen, Bradly, don't say anything. Even though it was fake, we were still friends for—" Johnathan said but Bradly cut him off."Oh, you thought I was asking? For reminding me how I had to listen to your stupid complaints which made my brain melt all those time, watch this" Bradly said then stepped away from Johnathan and in the process, he brought out his phone and raised it in front of everyone.Bradly quickly went to the Bubble Tv platform, found a certain video, copied the link, and then sent it as a comment underneath the post on the scho

Back at the apartment, Abraham was seated in his office chair and was going through some documents when his phone on the desk suddenly started ringing.Seeing who the caller was, Abraham hurriedly answered the call.“Master Zebadiah, good evening or should I say good afternoon in your case,” Abraham said.[“Thank you Abraham and greetings to you too. I was just calling to ask how are you and Johnathan settling into the apartment? Hope everything is to his liking”] Zebadiah said.“Yes master, Master Johnathan gave his approval of the place a while ago. He told me that he’s happy to have somewhere like this close to his school to hang out during days he wants to get away from school stress”[“That’s good to hear. And Johnathan, where is he right now?”]“Well, master Johnathan told me that his level-mates were organizing a get-together somewhere close by so he went to go check it out. He wants to make as many acquaintances as possible before he starts school officially”Zebadiah grunted.

Johnathan was almost a whole foot taller than Zack was and because he wasn’t sitting and hunching anymore, his hoodie didn’t seem as big as it used to.Zack and his friends were starting to see that not only was Johnathan tall but he was also muscular and all three of him were speechless.“Hey Zack, don’t just stand there, teach that Welfie a lesson not to mess with people like us,” Someone from the crowd said.Even though he didn’t want to, Zack just had to show himself and there was only one way he could try to conquer Johnathan since he couldn’t attack him physically.“Listen here Welfie, as I said before, I’m Zack Griffin from the Griffin family and I’m sure you’ve heard of me. If you know what’s good for you, better let go of my hand right now or else you’ll receive a message from the school first thing tomorrow morning about your expulsion. Trust me, I can make that happen” Zack threatened then smirked.Johnathan shrugged “You can try but you’ll be surprised by the outcome,” he

The reason they were treating Johnathan this way was because they hadn't seen him anywhere around the school before and that only meant one thing.In Wellstone, the kids from the richest family are given their admission first and they are also given top priority in everything else so they are the first to start the academic session.The school would never admit that this preferential treatment exists but it does nonetheless and it is usually the students who enforce it with their actions.The later your resumption shows your level of importance in the school and with that mindset, even though the school is massive with thousands of students, everyone knows who the important people to look up to and respect are.For them not to know Johnathan only means that he either is just starting his academic session now or isn't that important for any of them to know. This makes him someone under scholarship or someone who's barely able to attend Wellstone.None of those two options are good posi

The more they walked, the closer and louder the music became and there was a door in front of them which had the bowling alley behind it.Johnathan could see colorful lights escaping from the cracks which let him know that it isn’t just bowling but there should also be a party happening in there.Whoever organized this must have paid a pretty penny to transform a regular bowling rink into a disco party but since they are students of Wellstone, the money should be considered a cheap change to them.Because of how close Johnathan was behind her, Shirley got annoyed and stopped walking."Why the hell are you following me?" She asked and Johnathan grimaced.He also stopped after hearing the ridiculousness of the accusation."Who said I'm following you?" He asked."You are so there's no use denying it," she said as a vein bulged on her forehead.Johnathan scoffed then he smacked his tongue."Listen here miss Vice President or whatever you call yourself—""It's Shirley, Shirley Price.

Johnathan grimaced as he leaned closer, getting all up in her face."Oh really? You don't know her?" He asked and she avoided eye contact."If that's true then why don't I believe you? Something tells me that you do know her and you're lying to me to protect your friend" Johnathan said and Shirley got irritated."I told you I don't know anyone like that so get the hell out of my personal space!" Shirley got aggressive and pushed him away.Because of how tall and more muscular than her Johnathan was, her shove didn't really do much but he moved back on his own accord anyway."You said this entire place was reserved for the students of Wellstone, those were your own words, and that right there was where she robbed." Johnathan pointed at where he made contact with the girl with red and black hair."What other proof do I need to show that she was a fellow student of Wellstone and as the Vice President you know or at least have an idea of who she is" Johnathan pursed his lips."I said I do
